Question for Moms Who Must Carry Medications (Like Benadryl or Epi-pen).

My three-year-old son has a couple of food allergies that require us to carry an Epi-Pen and Benadryl with us. I need it to be accessible, so I keep it in my purse or in the diaper bag. The problem is that my son loves Benadryl - it has a good taste - and lately he's been "investigating" the bag that I keep the meds in. The Benadryl has a child-proof top, but still ...

YMCA Day Camp, a Little Nervous...

My Six year old is going to Day Camp on the lake through the YMCA (Park Cities/Town North Dallas) and he is very excited, which I am encouraging. The problem is I am alittle nervous, as it is a long day, they ride a bus, they are in a lake, and in the hands of people I do not know. Has anyone had any experience with their child attending this camp or insight on camp in general...thanks in advance Moms.

Epi Pen ????

My daughter is allergic to peanuts and we just went and picked up her epi pen and I noticed that it exp in may 2007. That just doesn't seem to be a very long shelf life for something that you hopefully will not need to use often. Of course if this is the norm that is fine but I feel like maybe the pharmacy just gave me an old one that they had on the shelf and if that is the case I am going back up there. So if someone could check theirs and let me know I would sooo appreciate it!
